california is gonna have so many mail in ballots that don’t get counted because people don’t know the new USPS rules that are impacting mail in voting. tl;dr don’t put your ballot in the mail today, find a ballot drop box. www.kqed.org/news/1208537...

Every year for Pride, I repost Hue. I made him to send love and comfort to those who feel Pride isn’t for them because they aren’t out. You matter, you are valid, and it’s ok if you aren’t ready yet. Coming out is not a requirement for being part of this community. Happy Pride 🌈

You just voted two weeks ago to ban any mention of LGBTQ people from federally funded schools and to forcibly out trans kids. Don't you dare come here and say happy pride.

Hey! My month long social media break was almost a year long. How've you been? My partner and I have been working on a new game and the Steam page just went live! I'd love to hear what you think. I'm going to try to be more social again :) store.steampowered.com/app/4717800/...

Timeline cleanse: Baby tapir getting scritches for their itches. If you want to scritch your very own tapir & you live outside of Central or South America or SE Asia, you'll need to visit a zoo. But these little guys are (evolutionarily) from around here, in North America. Let's talk about it.

Financial circumstances mean I am available, possibly even a little desperate, for freelance gigs that can use my abiltiies as a writer (Cryptmaster, Valheim, Ironheart etc) and voice actor (Cryptmaster). Anyone who can pump the visibility on this will have my eternal(ish) gratitude!

there's really only two kinds of near future: one in which guys like this are systematically broken on the wheel for the many crimes they have committed, and one where they walk free. only one of these is a viable future

My fellow cis folks, The FCC is asking Americans to submit comments about whether the TV Oversight Management Board (TVOMB) should create new TV ratings to alert viewers to trans/gender content. Time to be an ally and tell the FCC absolutely the fuck not. It takes five minutes to do.

I know there's tremendous interest right now surrounding growing potential for a strong El Niño event, or even a so-called "super" El Niño. In this just-recorded live session, I break down the current forecast, its implications, and associated caveats. www.youtube.com/live/rZvJPlP...

This event is tomorrow (Thu) morning, and you can still sign up to watch live! It will also be recorded. There has been a big uptick in wildfire activity in recent days, so this will be a timely opportunity to discuss bigger picture surrounding the "fire information landscape."

I think Bluesky's relay or appview may just have temporarily lagged behind on getting posts from Blacksky users. So if you're hosted by Blacksky, but you're logged into bsky on mobile, it would look like your posts didn't go through If this is still impacting you, please email [email protected]

Democracy Docket published 8 stories today about the Callais VRA decision. I would proudly compare that to any large media outlet. Each of these stories digs deep into the case, its implications and what comes next. If you value this type of in-depth coverage subscribe now. bit.ly/4qmEiFz

Today was a tough day for democracy. The Supreme Court gutted the VRA -- the crown jewel of American democracy. But, I built Democracy Docket for times like this. Always pro-democracy, never backs down. Support by subscribing today. bit.ly/4qmEiFz

🚨BREAKING: According to exclusive research by Democracy Docket, the Supreme Court’s ruling will likely derail at least 28 pro-voting lawsuits that aim to stop state legislatures from drawing electoral maps that dilute the voting power of racial minorities. www.democracydocket.com/news-alerts/...

I can't believe we have reached this point, but this bears crystal clear emphasis: Our global climate system ensures that even "limited" use of lower-yield "tactical" nuclear weapons against civilian or industrial targets would have major regional-to-global scale consequences.

Feed cleaner - I could watch this all day :)

NASA isn't why the US doesn't have universal healthcare, or a social safety net. The US doesn't have those things because politicians with the power to provide them choose specifically not to (with varying levels of support from voters). Enthusiasm for human spaceflight doesn't drive that choice.

Hey media-- Pam Bondi is not a victim -- she willingly carried out Trump's political agenda to prosecute his political enemies and undermine free and fair elections. Todd Blache is not shouldering a "burden" or "walking a tightrope." He is a willing accomplice. Language matters.
